Farming Question

[funion987]

How many herbs does 1 herb seed yield?

 

 

 

P.S. I don't farm, which might explain why I am asking this.

[asianboy7o7]

average of 5-8

 

 

 

with supercompost and magic secta.

 

 

 

my personal best was 17 snaps 1 seed

[All_Is_Great]

from 4-18, but you will get at least 5 if you wear magic secateurs. Using supercompost will also give better yields. Dont expect to get 18 though, its incredibly rare, most I've gotten was 16 kwuarms.

[toast647]

I usually get 8-12 herbs with magic sec and super compost

[Deathmath]

I consistently got 5 w/ secateurs and supercompost :wall: but I got 12 once...

[Psycho_Robot]

I got 19 avantoes from 1 seed once, just throwing that in there :thumbsup:

It also depends on the herb. I get 5-8 most of the time when I grow snapdragons, but dwarf weeds usually give me 7-9 herbs on average.

 

My max is 18 snaps, that was when snaps still were a bit higher than they are now. Over 110k profit :shock:.

Is yield directly related to farming level?

[Psycho_Robot]

farming level has no effect on the yield

[Bladewing]

Calculated mean for sample of thousands of patches yielded a mean herb yield of 6.6 herbs / seed.

Sweet, thanks.

 

 

 

Also, I put all pineapples into compost bins. It's been about two hours, and it's still decomposing. Is that normal?

[Eaubbster]

I'm pretty sure that if you compost pineapples and plant herbs at the same time, you can gather the supercompost by the time that the herbs are fully grown.

[funion987]

Ok. I finally was able to open the bins again after three hours.

Compost takes quite a long time and its quite a hassle to get because the leprechaun doesn't store enough buckets. You can get 60 buckets of compost every time, but the leprechaun only stores 31 buckets. Why that is I have no idea, but that's what you have to deal with. Essentially you need to bring 15 buckets with you to 2 out of the 4 patches.

[Deathmath]

Now you can note it though \

I've taken to just buying supercompost on the GE. It takes too long to make and it's cheap to buy anyway.

I've recently come about a larger death rate in my herbs. Before, I would never have any of them die. Now, every run, two or three out of four die. Is there a reason for this sudden death of herbs? I am growing ranarrs using supercompost. I have been consistently replanting ranarr seeds in all of my plots. Thanks.

Have you always been planting ranarrs? They seem to have the highest death rate.

I have, but I've only recently had deaths.

[aspeeder]

This just happens sometimes, I think that the death rate need to "catch up" sometimes...If you're worried this will really affect your income then just use cheaper seeds until it "passes"
